Use of captcha tool for new users/spam bots?

Successful spam occurences seem to be down recently, but they do get through now and then. I was just adding a conact form to my website, including Google's reCAPTCHA for some bot detection. This got me thinking if OGA uses this also...

On the registration page, the current measure seems woefully inadequete.

"CAPTCHA

This question is for testing whether you are a human visitor and to prevent automated spam submissions.What is the background of the blue theme on this site? *Fill in the blank."

I could easily write code to allow a bot to circumvent this.

Thoughts on using something a bit more robust like Google's tool?
